3rd post in Term Two

Hi Parents,

Happy Lunar New Year! May you have peace and surplus year after year! 新春快乐!敬祝年年有余!岁岁平安!

  1. Dictation 听写

The next dictation will be the last dictation this term. The word list is attached below and will be handed out soon. Please note the first four words are foundation ones. Please let your children choose foundation or challenging words. The dictation date will be on March 5th.

We will be learning a main method that was used to create Chinese characters, Xingcheng(形声法). This dictation list shows how a root character 包 combines with various radicals to create different characters, such as hug抱, run跑. The root character, 包, gives a hint about the pronunciation and radicals give a clue about the meaning.
